Boxing investigations start

Investigations are underway into allegations of boxing promoters trying to sabotage each other says the Fiji Boxing Commission.

Commission director Malakai Veisamasama says some of these cases have been brought to their attention.

He says sabotaging of promotion has been going on for sometime.

“We are aware of of promoters trying to backstab each other by trying to sabotage promotions. Not only that some boxers are also involved. We know who they are and let me tell them that the Commission has zero tolerance towards such people.”

The government hopes to have Fiji boxers in the 2016 Olympic Games and for that – help from Cuba will be arriving this year.
